They look very becoming on your Jeep...
Are you going to have them siped?

Thanks... nope no real plans for getting them siped.
Will run them the way they are.

From the profile on the Jeep, they almost look like the Simex Trekker tires... too bad those are not DOT approved yet over here. The are a bias tire and share the looks of the super swamper in a way.

Have you handled them in snow or ice? where did you get yours?

Was looking at 30s, cheapest I found was 126 so far..

I just bought a set of these from a local tire store--LT 235-75-15, same as the stock 30x9.50 (maybe 1/2" or so difference). I've only had them in mud--they performed flawlessly and will flat out GO. Clean-out is amazing and this was some pretty nasty stuff. I know mine are narrower than probably everyone else's, but they really impressed me and will DIG. To be honest, I tried it in 2wd and could go just about as good as in 4wd. Pavement manners seem great so far (a little sway, but that's normal with a brand new m/t) we'll see how they do after a few thousand miles. I'm not a big fan of brand name tires mainly because of the high $$$ anyway, I worked at a tire store while in HS and College--I've seen just about every make there is on all kinds of vehicles. So far these Federals really impress me.

I have never tried Federal before But, I put a set of Federal M/S on last Fall and I have been very happy so far. They seem to wear well on road and the traction on snow and ice have been excellent.

So far about 2,500 miles on them and running nice. Yea these tires sure like the mud and clean out well so far. Next week will be testing them out on the rocks as I hit the Badlands park.

Why do the 33x12.50x15's not have any specs??
Thats the exact size I need!! They do carry them right?!

I'm glad to see that they are working out great for you!
You really helped me make up my mind!
Thanx for this post!!

Hmmm interesting that there's no specs listed for that one, maybe still in process.
http://www.federaltire.com/en/images/datasheet/size_spec/specCmt.html

What are you looking for in the spec...???

Check with Savontires.com or Tiresavings.com to see if they carry that size.
They are the only two on-line vendors I've found that carry them.

I was looking to see what the "approved rim width" would be for the 33x13.50x15 because I also need to get new wheels. I found some specs & reviews on the couragia mt's!

Check it out!

Federal Couragia MT (UPDATE)

Well so far about 3500 miles on them and about to rotate them this weekend. So far tires seem fine and handle road conditions & rain conditions fine.

This Friday they will definately put to the mud test since will be heading out to Yankee Lake Truck night where they are a few mud bog pits, small trails and even a small rock garden.

Looking forward to see how they handle the messy mud bog....

Chris
